Abstract
A medical instrument is provided for manipulation of the uterus, in particular for laparascopic complete hysterectomy. It comprises a handle at the proximal instrument part and a manipulator probe at the distal instrument part, these being connected to one another via an elongate shank. Furthermore a holding device is arranged at the distal instrument part for fastening the uterus subject to therapy relative to the manipulator probe. In order to prevent the pneomoperitoneum from being destroyed during the operation to remove the uterus, the invention provides for a sealing device in the form of a closed tube insertable into the vagina, in which the shank of the instrument is axially displaceably arranged.
